I like wearing skirts or dresses and think that my legs were actually colder when I wore trousers on Friday than they were when I wore a long skirt with tights on Thursday.
I clearly should have worn tights under my trousers on Friday.
Zoe: Jayne. This is something the Captain has to do for himself. Mal: No! No, it's not!

I was always the only woman in my department, so I dunno what the other women wore. I probably have no office appropriate wear in my size any more.
The SO & his buddy said they were going hiking, but there sure is a lot of posting about stuff on television. Who'd like to take bets that they are, instead, sitting in a bar watching the game?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
In the winter, I wear slacks with bamboo-fabric long johns underneath.
On the GPS thing: there's an elementary school down the block from my house that doesn't show up on any of the GPS maps. Half the time I want to go somewhere, the GPS will start by telling me to drive through the playground. (The other half of the time, it tells me to go the wrong way down a one-way street.)

Not taking that bet.
Hmm, I'm doing research for a story and can't find an answer to this question: how many shells fit in the magazine of a pump-action shotgun?

Apparently people are becoming much worse drivers since GPS showed up.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Depends on the gun, I'm pretty sure. Do you have a specific one in mind?

I wear a lot more slacks, even though I like skirts, because skirts and dresses so often don't have pockets. I mean, I TRY to buy them with pockets, but often I see one and try it on and like it so much that I think "Well, even though it doesn't have pockets, I"m sure I'll like it anyway"...and then I never wear it because it's too much bother.

Pretty sure it depends on both the gun and the shell/slug actually. Bah.
Remington 870, of which there are too many sub-types. It's hard writing Terminator fic if you're not a weapons geek.
Found it: I had to download the owner's manual. 3 or 4 shells fit in the magazine, depending.

I am getting ready to do a blitz yard clean up. Really wonder how much I can do in 15 minutes.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Huh. I would have guessed more. Of course, I've never handled a shotgun,
